So my friend has been dating a girl for a couple of months. Not too serious but is introduced as the girlfriend. Well he meets the girl of his dreams and they hit it off. He plans on breaking it off to be with the hot new girl. But he is supposed to go visit the girlfriend and her family this weekend. He is planning on going and then breaking it off. What's the best way to end it? I say end it tonight, He says he wants to let her down easy after the weekend, finals, etc.

Use her until after finals or whatever event is looming. Meet family, frick her good then end it.

What makes him think this new girl is the girl of his dreams?

This sounds like a future regret in the making.

Keep them both. If he breaks ups with girl A and new girl B ain't the girl of his dreams after a few dates then he's sittin at home alone on Friday nights drinking Mountain Dew code red, eating pizza and playing World of Warcraft. If after a few months girl B is still all that, then break up with girl A.

The douche part would be breaking up with her during finals...do it after...
Make up a reason not to visit the family and then drop it on her the day after her last final.

Yep, she'll be fricking a guy she knew in high school in no time.

Is she emotionally attached? Wait until after finals so you don't frick her over.

Is this still pretty casual? Just end it now.

He definitely shouldn't meet her family if he's dumping her. That would be a real douche move. Make up an excuse why he can't go and dump her after finals.

You didn't think it was serious until the girl introduced you as the boyfriend.

You met some new great tail... and you want to pursue that instead...

But he is supposed to go visit the girlfriend and her family this weekend.


But you feel a bit guilty and like you are supposed to play the boyfriend role you didn't assume you were in...

He is planning on going and then breaking it off.


your planning on going and then breaking it off, cause you don't wanna feel like an arse since you've already been invited, introduced, and expected as the new BF...

Doesn't matter... a shite storm will arise.

Break up first. Don't meet parents.

Get into an altercation with her father and let nature run its course.

Don't think meeting the family is a good thing if he plans on breaking up. I'd just dump her now rather then after.

Go meet the parents, have a good time, then blame not liking the parents on the upcoming breakup. Win/win.
